iSimulator is a macOS GUI utility for managing Xcode simulators and the apps installed on them. It wraps simctl/xcrun functionality to create, boot, and erase simulators and to launch, uninstall, or share apps across simulators.

Use cases

  • manage ios simulator apps without terminal commands
  • access an app's sandbox and bundle folders on the simulator
  • boot multiple simulators at once
  • share an installed app to another simulator without rebuilding
  • create, erase, or delete simulators from a gui
  • pair iphone and apple watch simulators

When to choose

  • you frequently use simctl/xcrun and want a gui instead
  • you need quick access to simulator app sandboxes and bundles
  • you manage many simulators and installed apps across ios, watchos, and tvos

When to avoid

  • you develop on linux or windows
  • you need to test on physical devices
  • you don't have Xcode installed, since it depends on Xcode command line tools
